50 And forgive Thy people that have sinned against Thee, and all their peysha’im wherein they have rebelled against Thee, and give them rachamim before them who carried them captive, that they may have rachamim on them;

Melachim Alef 8:50 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 8:50

And forgive thy people that have sinned against thee, and all
their transgressions wherein they have transgressed against thee
By returning them to their own land; by which it would appear that the Lord had forgiven their trespasses, as well as by what follows:

and give them compassion before them who carried them captive, that
they may have compassion on them;
for it is in the power of God to work upon the affections of men, and dispose their minds to use his people well, and to pity them under their distresses, as the Chaldeans did the Jews in Babylon, ( Psalms 106:46 ) .

Melachim Alef 8:50 In-Context

48 And so return unto Thee with all their lev, and with all their nefesh, in the eretz of their enemies, which led them away captive, and daven unto Thee in the derech (direction) of their land, which Thou gavest unto their Avot, the Ir which Thou hast chosen, and the Bayit which I have built for Thy Shem;

49 Then hear Thou their tefillah and their techinnah in Shomayim, the Makom of Thy dwelling, and uphold their cause,

50 And forgive Thy people that have sinned against Thee, and all their peysha’im wherein they have rebelled against Thee, and give them rachamim before them who carried them captive, that they may have rachamim on them;

51 For they are Thy people, and Thine nachalah, which Thou broughtest forth out of Mitzrayim, from the midst of the Kur HaBarzel (Furnace of Iron):

52 That Thine eyes may be open unto the techinnah of Thy eved, and unto the techinnah of Thy people Yisroel, to pay heed unto them in all that they call for unto Thee.
